Wasn’t what was expected.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Computer arrived in good condition but ran very very slowly. Did not realize how slow it would run as it was certified refurbished. Must have just been the age of it. Unfortunately you couldn’t upgrade it either. They should put a restriction on the age of products they sell. Worked fine but just wasn’t what was expected.
